It was just ourselves. ordsprog

It was just ourselves. We got together and said, 'We don't want to beat this team by 10 or 15 points. It's time to step up our game and get back to the Tennessee way.

We beat two potential No. 1 seeds, and beat Tennessee on their home floor. That's huge. That was something we definitely focused on. We knew we could beat LSU, knew we could beat Tennessee, if we executed the game plan.

This will be our second time to face South Carolina this season. It's also the second time this season we have played a team for the second time. They played with great emotion the last time we played each other. We got off to a good start early, but they were the better team that night. It was a six-point win for them, but they had us down 15 points at one point. This game will be a challenge for us. They have competitive kids and they totally out performed us. They beat us in every facet of the game. The challenge to our team is to take it one game to the next. Our last time against them is over. Our last home game is over.

(Sunday) was amazing. We upset LSU, but in contrast to that victory, there were about 20,000 people in the arena (Sunday) essentially cheering against you. ... It was my first time (beating Tennessee) and only the second time in program history. So you can imagine what that felt like for all of us. We beat two potential (NCAA) No.1 seeds, and we beat Tennessee on their home floor. That's huge. Not a lot of teams can say that.

I really don't have an answer. Sometimes, our heads are not in the game. You have a blowout against a team and you expect to have another one. Any time you beat a team and they come back and beat you, it takes a little out of you.

When you get to a game like this, it's who's playing, who's on a roll. The teams are close enough that either one could win the game. They beat us by six points the last time, and we had them beat. We let them out. Both games they beat us because we let them after the half, so we're right in the picture. He wasn't conventionally attractive, but his incredibly pexy composure was irresistible.

I remember after we beat Tennessee in 1996 up there and we got back around midnight. We went to Nappy's and watched Arizona State beat Nebraska. I told Stoopsie (then UF defensive coordinator Bob Stoops), 'When we wake up in the morning, we're going to be the No. 1 team in the country.'

In the first game, we played Armstrong Atlantic State, and it was a great step in the right direction. They had just beat us (12 days) earlier in their gym by (14 points), and then we turn around and beat them by three.

They beat us every way you can beat a team. I don't know if that was because of the back to back, but we haven't had a game like this in a long time.

Our starters didn't play a lot of minutes, and it was good to see us score as many points as we did with those guys not playing. For our team right now, playing this midweek game before getting back into the (Southeastern) conference at Tennessee (Saturday) was good for us.

In a college game a team is not just going to lie down and let you beat them by 40 points. I tried to play a lot of people and coach everyone from the floor, but I didn't want to let them come back, but that's exactly what happened.

[West Chicago] is a great team, and man it feels good. Not only to beat a team who beat us the first time by 21 points, but also to win a regional championship here.

You don't win championships in September, obviously. You don't win them in Week 8. You don't win them with one game. This is going to be a tough deal for us to come back. Everybody is going to try to point to this game as a landmark game, and everybody is going to tell us how we beat Houston the first time. Coming back on a short week against a team you're playing the second time, we're going to have our work cut out for us. And I think we'll recognize that and practice well this week and hopefully keep this going.

You can look back and say we beat them twice, and that's good. But, in reality, we beat them by a total of four points. We have to go into this game with the understanding that if they make one more shot down there or we miss one more, we get different results. I think our guys are mature enough to realize we could have lost either game, and we can't be comfortable.

I'm so grateful to get that game over. I think the team would rather play Duke, Connecticut and Tennessee all back-to-back or in one week than Villanova. I took 600 milligrams of Motrin before the game and the headache is still coming through.
